Microsoft is rolling out updates this week that will allow Xbox One owners to use external hard drives with their consoles, control their TVs using the OneGuide interface, and see their friends real names on Xbox Live. The upcoming update, detailed in late May, also brings improvements to the Xbox SmartGlass companion app, and lets Xbox owners use apps such as Netflix and Hulu without needing a $60-a-year Xbox Live Gold subscription. Updated Xbox One consoles will support up to two external USB 3.0 compatible hard drives, a feature that wasnt available at the consoles launch. External drives will automatically become the default installation location for Xbox One games when connected, but they will have to have more than 256GB storage to be detected by the console.
